Silver Winters
First Year
Hufflepuff

Silver walked into class casually. Everyone was making a fit about the exams but Silver was confident that she cuold breeze this through. Astronomy was one of her favourite subjects.

"Now everyone. I want you to be sure to keep your eyes on your own paper. Please get your quills out and put your bags under your chairs. And my dears remember don't stress!"

Silver looked up from putting her bag below her and saw Professor Avon flick her wand as a parchment from the stack flew to each students desk.

Silver reached out to grab the parchment but at this time, "Please do not touch." she heard Professor Avon say. Silver retracted her arm.

At the strike of an hour, the parchment unrolled before her eyes.

"You may begin!" SIlver heard and she picked up her quill.

PART I: Questions

House : Hufflepuff
Year : First

1. What is a triangular planetary alignment?
A triangulary planetary alignment is when three planets miraculousy move out of orbit and form a triangle. This causes a magical ray of blue light to form and it reflects on the sun. For days on end, this ray of light can be seen merging with the light rays from the sun forming a greenish coloured bond. This happens only once in a blue moon. (forgive my pun.)

2. What planet blew up 300 000 years ago?
Planet bluemaihadeofe is believed to have blown up 300 000 years ago. It was said to be attacked by the Zonk martians from planet Zonkduh. The zonks have been said to have wanted to blow up Earth but they have since disapeared. Rumor has it that their battlecruiser was sucked up by a black hole near bluemaihadeofe and everyone believes that it was retribution for their evil doings.

3. What is a terrestrial planet? (Use an example)
A terrestrial planet or telluric planet is a planet which is primarily composed of silicate rocks. For example, water was once said to have run on Mars' surface therefore there are cracks and craters on the face of the planet. The terrestrial planets have solid surfaces and are nearer to the sun compared to the other planets.

4. What is a gas giant? (Use an example)
A gas giant (sometimes also known as a Jovian planet after the planet Jupiter) is a large planet that is not primarily composed of rock or other solid matter. Gas giants may have a rocky or metallic core—in fact, such a core is thought to be required for a gas giant to form—but the majority of its mass is in the form of gas (or gas compressed into a liquid state), mainly hydrogen and helium. Unlike rocky planets, which have a clearly defined difference between atmosphere and surface, gas giants do not have a well-defined surface; their atmospheres simply become denser toward the core.

5. What type of spell would one use to cleanse a Moon Stone (aka Moon Meteorite)?
Usually, most would just use the old fashion way of cleaning moon stones. By hand. But for the lazier, more advanced people, there was a complex spell needed to remove the dirt from the moon stone. You'd have to stand on your head and place the moon stond 13.5 inches away from your head at a 51.3 degree angle to your body. At this time, concentrate on the dirt on the moon stone and say. 'seiketsumoon'. The stone will be clean, but it will also rocket towards your nose. So if you're used to it and fast enough, DUCK.

6. What is the main use of a Moon Meteorite?
A moon meteorite is normally used for scientific research. Muggles commonly study the universe. If they were to know that a chunk of the sky fell out, they would be swarming over it and studying and researching and poking and proding. Of course, moon meteorites are not only for muggle development. They are also used in friendly fights between wizards. When used with the correct spell, the moon meteorite can change into a perfect attacking tool. Of course, beware not to use infront of teachers.

7. Where is the star Jangala located? (Be specific)
The star Jangala can only be seen on the highest and darkest hills in Southern Europe. It can be seen precisely at 11.59.59 midnight. Before the star appears you must prepare a large blanket, a cup of hot coffee and insect repellant. When the star appears it blinks for precisely 5 and a half times. And only the people with the purest of hearts are able to witness such a miracle of a star.

8. What will happen if you try to mess with a telescopes look through walls charm?
It will blow up on you at the most. At the least, it's known to box you in the eye.

9. Static wraps around what planet causing it to glow blue?
Static wraps around the planet blewsteatick and causes it to be blue. The static comes from the martians on that planet rubbing their feet on the carpets too often and zapping each other. These zaps occur too often that the static automatically engulfed the whole planet. Thus now, it is said that these blewsteatick-ians are known to 'destaticsise' each other in the event of anymore 'zapping'.

10. What did you think of Astronomy this year? (I do like to hear opinions and I do want you to be honest but please remember everyone has feelings; if you could answer IN character only please.)
I love astronomy. So far, astronomy has been my favourite class in all the classes i have attended so far. Professor Avon has also helped us alot. The most enjoyable parts of astronomy are star gazing. Ever since i was young, i've loved the stars. I've always wondered who was so mighty to be able to scatter all the diamonds in the sky. I would love to continue taking astronomy in my future years in Hogwarts.
